Unfortunately, I cannot aid either of you because I do not have both Statements. I direct that the Chairperson responds to this Statement next week on Tuesday. If there is something he considers secret, he must let me know in advance, but that Statement must be responded to on Tuesday. I also agree with Sen. M. Kajwang that there is no response. What we said yesterday with regard to the issue of the Chairperson of the Committee on Education is the same thing we will say to the Chairperson of the Committee on National Security and Foreign Relations. Regarding the issue as to whether or not a Chairperson is a messenger, I could not believe it coming, Sen. Haji. Sen. Haji, by definition, outlook, persona, experience and exposure, cannot by any stature of imagination be a messenger. Earlier in the day, the Deputy Speaker stated that Chairpersons are not messengers. You have never been a messenger and you cannot be a messenger in your old age. We want to see the Chairperson of the Committee on National Security and Foreign Relations, the one and only Sen. Haji, on Tuesday, the way we know him, to respond to that Statement."}
